Mikhail Efremov

It would be strange if Mikhail Olegovich Efremov, the son of the legendary Russian actor, director and beloved theatrical figure Oleg Efremov and the Sovremennik actress, People's Artist of the RSFSR Alla Pokrovskaya, chose the path of engineer or doctor.

In addition to his famous parents, Mikhail Efremov can be proud of his grandfather Boris Pokrovsky (opera director) and great-great-grandfather Ivan Yakovlev (educator and founder of the Chuvash alphabet).

Until the 4th generation, a creative family brought up an equally creative heir. However, as Mikhail Efremov himself says, only for the first 5 minutes they look at you as a descendant of a star, and then “they expect to see what you personally can offer”.

Mikhail Efremov was born in 1963. Moscow city. At the age of 13, he first appeared on the stage of the play "Leaving, Look Back!", And also starred in the films "Days of Surgeon Mishkin" and the film of the same name "Leaving, Look Back ...".

A year later, young Efremov starred in the film "When I Become a Giant", which made him popular at such a young age. But after that, the film career calmed down for a while. This was due to the study of Mikhail at the institute and military service.

Mikhail Efremov received his higher theatrical education at the Moscow Art Theater School. But after the 1st year he was drafted into the army. After the service, Efremov continued his studies on the course of Vladimir Bogomolov, and after graduation in 1987 he headed the Sovremennik-2 theater studio, in which Nikita Vysotsky, Vyacheslav Nevinny Jr. and Maria Evstigneeva played.

Soon the troupe broke up, and Efremov Jr. came to his father, at the Moscow Art Theater, to his native stage, which remembered him as a child. The actor played here for 8 years, but the years of work in the studio were full of disagreements and conflicts with his father. This was the reason for Mikhail's departure, but he himself noted that this school gave him many invaluable lessons.

At this time, Mikhail Efremov played in several dozen performances, the most famous of which were "Woe from Wit" (the role of Chatsky), "Amadeus" (the role of Mozart), "Little Scams of the Big City", "Games of Women", "Duck Hunt" and, of course, The Seagull (the role of Treplev).

The Moscow Art Theater Mikhail Efremov, whose biography began on this very stage, left in 1999. The actor also worked in one-off productions of the School of Modern Play and the Anton Chekhov Theater, and since the mid-2000s, Mikhail began to appear on the stage of Sovremennik. He played in the production of Galina Volchek "Three Sisters" by Vasily Solyony, in the play by Garik Sukachev "Anarchy" by Billy Miscarriage, and also directed "Sharmanka" himself.

The last work on the stage of the theater was the production of Amsterdam, directed by Sergei Gazarov. Entreprise works of Efremov were roles in the performances "People-Mice", "Little Scams of the Big City" and "Chapaev and Emptiness".

Films with Mikhail brought constant success, because the actor is always snapped up by directors. Efremov has been constantly acting in films since the late 80s. In 1989, he played the main role in the TV series Noble Robber Vladimir Dubrovsky, and in 1991 in the social drama Luke. In 1992, the comedy "Men's Zigzag" aroused unprecedented interest from the audience.

The second half of the 90s brought the actor many interesting roles. The actor played the King of France Charles IX in the popular TV series "Queen Margot". This was followed by work in the musical comedy Garik Sukachev "Midlife Crisis". And in the series "Chekhov and K" Mikhail played with his father Oleg Efremov.

Deafening fame came after participating in the series by Alexander Mitta “Border. Taiga Romance "in 2000. There, the actor was to play the officer Alexei Zhgut. The hero of Efremov is a broken-hearted, unlucky guy who does not want to serve in the army. The faithful on-screen companion of Mikhail's character was played by the actress Elena Panova. She got the role of the heroine wife, a strong Russian woman, constantly forced to pull her husband out of the alterations.

This role caused a lot of reviews, but everyone agreed on one thing: Efremov played brilliantly, and his character, despite his dubious actions and eccentric character, aroused sympathy. The actor even stated that he is in many ways similar to his character.

After the series “Border. Taiga novel "Mikhail Olegovich appears more and more often on the screen. He starred in the popular projects Kamenskaya and Romanovs. The Crowned Family ", in the films" Antikiller "and" Antikiller-2 ". In general, the richest filmography of Mikhail Efremov has more than 100 films.

With each new work, the artist's popularity only grows. Filmmakers often use his comedic gift. The roles of Efremov in the comedies "Listener" and "Supertech for a Loser" became successful. The hero of Mikhail in Nikita Mikhalkov's detective story "State Councilor" did not go unnoticed.

The artist has been incredibly popular lately. Films with Mikhail Olegovich appear more and more often: about 10 films with his participation are released a year. And although he tries not to get hung up on one image, Efremov's filmography has many comedic roles.

For all his comedic appearance, Efremov can play other roles. In the film "12" by Nikita Mikhalkov, the actor played one of the jurors. At the beginning of the tape, he habitually laughs, but then gives out a piercing and dramatic monologue, which radically changes the attitude towards his hero.

Mikhail Efremov took part in the series "Thaw" (2013), which has become a real event in Russian cinema. Director Valery Todorovsky made a film about the 60s, when his father Peter began his career. The series received "Nika" "For Creative Achievements in the Art of Television Cinematography", and in 2015 - the prize of the Government of the Russian Federation.

Personally, Efremov for the role of director Krivitsky received "TEFI" as "The best actor in a television film / series." The main role was played by Evgeny Tsyganov, and their partners were young actresses Anya Chipovskaya and Paulina Andreeva, as well as Pavel Derevyanko, Vladimir Gostyukhin. In the series, Mikhail played a Soviet director - a talented, eccentric, but honest and patriotic "drinker". Efremov's son Nikita, who played his grandfather in his youth, Oleg Efremov, also appeared in the film.

In general, Mikhail Efremov succeeds in comedic roles, in which he plays merry fellows who do not shy away from knocking over a couple of glasses. Thus, his character, Father Innokenty from Election Day, earned national love. The actor himself, unlike many colleagues, never hid that he had problems with alcohol, calling them "a black spot on his reputation." Efremov, at the suggestion of Internet bloggers, is often compared to his peer Brad Pitt, hinting not so much at the external similarity, but at the fact that, due to his addiction, the Russian actor looks much older than his Hollywood colleague.

However, the actor cannot be denied a sense of humor and the ability to laugh at himself, which he did, for example, on the “Evening Urgant” program, where he first announced the planned concert in honor of his 50th birthday. Efremov called it "Drinking with Mikhail Efremov", where the word "hard drinking" can be interpreted both as a noun and as a verb.

It is symbolic that in 2016 it was Efremov who was invited to the 4-episode series "Drunken Firm", in which his hero - a former doctor - brings various rich people out of drinking. The film attracts attention with the abundance of star actors who took part in the filming.

In the same 2016, the actor starred in the TV series "Investigator Tikhonov", where he played the head of the operational squad, which investigates the most notorious crimes that happened before the Olympic Games-80 in Moscow.

On November 30, 2009, Efremov, replacing Igor Kvasha, who left television for health reasons, began to broadcast the TV show "Wait for Me" on Channel One with Maria Shukshina. Also Mikhail Olegovich Efremov is a permanent member of the jury of the Higher League of KVN. As a devoted fan of the Spartak football club (Moscow), Efremov now and then appears in sports programs, reports and, of course, at the Otkrytie-Arena stadium.

From 2011 to March 5, 2012, the artist participated in the television project "Poet and Citizen" of the TV channel "Rain", where he read poems "on the topic of the day", written by Dmitry Bykov in the manner of famous poets and writers. On March 12, 2013, on the same Dozhd TV channel, together with Dmitry Bykov and Andrey Vasilyev, he launched the Good Mister project.

Mikhail Efremov, along with the poet Andrei Orlov (Orlusha), likes to make a big scandal by reading verses that denounce the modern and past Soviet power. Poems about Vladimir Putin and the president's policies had a special resonance. Among the last sketches was a scene entitled "Ulti-shah and Ulti-mate", which was created based on the immortal children's poem by S. Marshak "That is how absent-minded."

For greater persuasiveness, Efremov entered the stage of the Moscow Crocus City Hall in a straitjacket and a Napoleon cocked hat. The actor talked about Putin and his relationship with Ukraine.

The personal life of Mikhail Efremov is as rich as his creative biography. The actor has 5 official marriages. His wives gave the artist six children. The first wife is Elena Golyanova, an actress. The lovers got married in early youth, but could not keep the relationship.

The second wife, Asya Vorobyova, a graduate of the philological faculty of Moscow State University, held the position of literary editor at the Moscow Sovremennik Theater. On May 30, 1988, Asya gave birth to Efremov's first child, Nikita. According to his son, his parents divorced when he was 2 years old. Now Nikita Efremov is an actor of the Moscow Sovremennik Theater.

The third wife is People's Artist Yevgenia Dobrovolskaya. Mikhail and Eugenia got married in 1989. In 1991, Dobrovolskaya gave birth to the actor's second son, Nikolai. The guy is also an actor, he is known for his role as Nikolka in the film "White Guard".

The fourth wife of Efremov is actress Ksenia Kachalina. The actor met her on the set of the film “The Romanovs. Crowned family. " By this time, the artist had already divorced Dobrovolskaya. Mikhail began a new romance that ended in marriage. The couple lived for 4 years, after which Kachalina left for India. The couple had a daughter, Anna Maria, who lived with her mother in India, but after a while returned to her father in Moscow. At the age of 16, the girl came out, confessing to non-traditional sexual orientation.

Now Anna-Maria lives separately from her father's family, she has her own apartment, where a nanny looks after her. The girl spends holidays and vacations in the family circle of the Efremovs. Recently, the girl is increasingly surprising the public with an unusual appearance. In clothes, Anna-Maria prefers black, and judging by the photo from the Kinotavr-2016 film festival, where the girl arrived with her father, a backpack with a pentagram depicted on it flaunted on her shoulder.

The fifth wife is Sofya Kruglikova, a graduate of the sound engineering department of the Gnesins Russian Academy of Music, sound engineer.

Since 2005 he has been teaching at the Department of the Music Faculty of the Institute of Contemporary Art in Moscow, working with Garik Sukachev. She gave Efremov three children: daughters Vera and Nadezhda and a son Boris. In 2016, after 15 years of marriage, the couple got married in a church. According to relatives of the actor, he calls Sophia the love of his life.

Efremov's children, it seems, will also follow in the footsteps of the famous parent.

In the summer of 2018, the actor became a guest of the studio of the popular video blogger Yuri Dud. On the air of the show "vDud" Mikhail Olegovich shared with the public little-known facts of his life. He talked about the antics of childhood and adolescence, about the relationship with his current wife. In an interview with a journalist, the actor said that as a child he studied at school with the children of the first persons of the state. He got there after the 4th grade. Mikhail had to quickly navigate the situation so as not to be known as a "black sheep" among the "Soviet majors", and he succeeded.

In his youth, a representative of the famous dynasty traded in currency and so skillfully hid money in a cache that he could never be caught red-handed by intelligence officers. The parents did not like the dangerous business of their son, so the young man was hastily sent to the army.

The artist's performances with poems and monologues denouncing the authorities provoked criticism from Russian officials. After a tour of Ukraine, during which the actor spoke unflatteringly about the authorities in Russia, a member of the expert council for the development of the information society and the media under the State Duma, Vadim Manukyan, proposed to deprive Mikhail of the title of "Honored Artist of the Russian Federation" for unpatriotic statements.

The scandals around the name of Mikhail Olegovich do not prevent him from remaining in demand in the cinema. In 2018, the artist appeared in the rating series "Birch" about the popular Soviet dance ensemble, as well as in the tragicomedy of Gregory of Constantinople "Russian Bes".
